The budget for 2014 is the first and critical step that will allow this country to exit the bailout programme into which Fianna Fáil led us. It is designed to get this country back to work, which is the central mandate given to this Government of the Fianna Gael and Labour parties. Yesterday's budget contains a series of measures to deal with that. Deputy Martin mentioned a number of issues that affect older people. Budget 2014 has extended the principle of previous budgets of protecting and supporting the elderly in a great number of ways.
